    Same garbage. Different day.

    TB-3

    Mathieu Garon allowed 3 goals on 11 shots before being lifted for Cedrick Desjardins, who allowed 1 on 20 shots the rest of the way to take the backdoor loss.

    Tyler Johnson was the game's third star.

    It was like a replay of the Toronto game. The Lightning came out strong. They had some chances and some zone time in Ottawa's end but couldn't cash in. Brain farts turn into goals. One or two goals become a four goal lead for the bad guys. Next thing you know the team's in garbage time where it seems like the veterans have checked out and only the Tampacuse kids are doing work. It's something that needs to be corrected. There's still 17 games left to go, and if veterans are already mentally checked out and making tee times, they need to be gone from this organization at the deadline. Period. Point blank.

    Alex Killorn had 2 penalty minutes, 5 shots, and 5 hits in 18:37.

    Johnson had 2 goals and was +1 with 3 shots and 2 hits in 16:10. He was also 70% on draws. He's doing everything he needs to do right now to ink his name onto Tampa's roster for next season.

    Richard Panik had a helper and was +2 with 1 shot, 4 hits, and 1 blocked shot in 12:45. He was impactful in his return to the team, hitting a post in the First Period, being active physically, and getting a helper in the final frame. It was really fun to see Palat/Johnson/Panik getting to play together in the NHL and they looked like their chemistry definitely translated to the show.

    Ondrej Palat was +1 with 2 shots and 2 hits in 12:21.

    Radko Gudas had 2 shots, 5 hits, and 1 blocked shot in 18:54.

  • NCAA Game Night: 3-22-13
    12 weeks 4 days ago

    Brown Bears 4 @ No. 1 Quinnipiac Bobcats 0
    ECAC Semifinals

    F Matthew Peca, QU: 0-0-0, -1, 0 PIM, 2 SOG
    Season totals: 34 GP, 10-12-22, +10, 32 PIM

    Brown’s 5-9, undrafted goaltender Anthony Borelli stopped 29 shots and the Bears had four goals in the first two periods to upset top-ranked Quinnipiac in the ECAC semifinals. The Bobcats won the regular season conference title long ago with a remarkable campaign, but still chose not to touch their conference trophy as they had the tournament title in mind. It was not to be. They will play Yale in the Third Place Game on Saturday before their place in the national tournament is announced on Sunday.

    Colorado College Tigers 2 vs No. 2 Minnesota Golden Gophers 0
    WCHA Final 5 Semifinals

    G Adam Wilcox, MIN: Loss, 18 saves on 20 shots
    Season totals: 38 GP, 25-7-5, 1.85 GAA, .922 sv%, 3 SO

    Colorado College got two goals against Adam Wilcox, and goaltender Joe Howe (undrafted) made them stand up to propel the Tigers to the WCHA Final 5 championship game against Wisconsin. The Badgers upset top-seeded St. Cloud State. On Friday, Wilcox was beat first by a wrist shot from the circles that appeared to be deflected on its way into the upper corner of the net above Wilcox’s blocker. The second goal was a sweeping shot from the low right circle that may have been hard to read as a defender got a stick on it at the time it was released. The puck found it’s way through Wilcox, who made several strong saves to keep the game close in the final period. Nevertheless, he took his seventh loss of the season in 37 decisions. Minnesota will get an at-large bid to the national tournament.

    Florida was able to trim a 2-0 deficit late in the second period but Cincinnati responded with another strike before the second intermission and two more goals in the first half of the final frame to put the game out of reach for the hosts. The Everblades outshout the Cyclones 36-28 for the match with the bulk (20) of those chances generated in the second period. With the loss, Florida dropped to fourth-place in the South Division, though it holds three games in hand on Gwinnett and two on both South Carolina and Greenville. Charles Landry was the Lightning's lone prospect in the lineup with Dan Milan a scratch and both Alex Hutchings and Pat Nagle previously recalled to AHL Syracuse. Florida (34-22-11, 79 PTS) and Cincinnati (41-18-8, 90 PTS) take the ice again Saturday night.

  • Crunch Shut Out By Tokarski, Bulldogs
    12 weeks 4 days ago


    By Jeremy Houghtaling

    Even with a familiar face in the opposition's net, the Syracuse Crunch tried to focus on the two points up for grabs.

    Former teammate Dustin Tokarski stole the show, turning away 40 shots between the pipes for the Hamilton Bulldogs to hand the Crunch a 1-0 loss at the Onondaga County War Memorial Friday night.

    "It's the same two points," said Crunch goaltender Riku Helenius. "Obviously, I wanted to win today, but it didn't happen…Even when you play against your friends, it doesn't change things."

    Colorado College Tigers 4 vs. No. 4 North Dakota 3 (OT)

    F Brendan O’Donnell, UND: 0-1-1, +1, 0 PIM, 2 SOG
    Season totals: 27 GP, 2-8-10, E, 18 PIM

    Brendan O’Donnell had an assist on UND’s first goal, but he and his teammates won’t be advancing in the WCHA Final 5 after their overtime loss on Thursday. O’Donnell’s assist came when he won a battle in the right wing corner, using his skate to knock a puck to Habs prospect Danny Kristo, who swung around the net and roofed a wrist shot into the net. North Dakota later battled back to force overtime, but a CC shot banked off a UND defenseman and into the net in overtime to send the Tigers on to face the top-seeded Minnesota Golden Gophers and Lightning prospect Adam Wilcox in the semifinals on Friday. North Dakota will now wait for an at-large bid to the national tournament, to be announced on Sunday.

  • Desjardins, Crunch Blank Penguins, 1-0
    12 weeks 6 days ago


    By Jeremy Houghtaling

    It was all about the letter D for the Syracuse Crunch Wednesday night.

    The defense held the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins to nine shots in the first forty minutes, Philip-Michael Devos scored the lone goal and Cedrick Desjardins pitched a 20-save shutout, leading the Crunch to a 1-0 victory at the Onondaga County War Memorial.

    Syracuse has registered a point in its last five games, and paces the American Hockey League with 84 points.

    "Every night there's someone different that's the hero," Desjardins said. "Tonight, everyone stepped in."
